These two additional break sizes (in LAR Encl. 4-3, Table 2.2.2)were linearly interpolated between NUREG-1829 frequencies to be consistent with the STP probabilisticrisk assessment (PRA) SBLOCA and MBLOCA bounding break sizes of 2 inches (SBLOCA-MBLOCA) and 6inches (MBLOCA-LBLOCA). Interpolation was performed for the 5th percentile, median, mean, and 95thquantiles of the NUREG-1829 distributions as described in Section 5 of Encl. 4-3 Reference 8, and theinterpolated values are shown in Encl. 4-3 Reference 8, Table 31.The quantiles of current-day break frequencies in NUREG-1829 Table 7.19 were fit to a parametric(Bounded Johnson) distribution as described in Section 2 of LAR Encl. 4-3 Reference 8. The Johnsonparameters from Table 2.2.2 of LAR Encl. 4-3 are also described in LAR Encl. 4-3 Reference 8. Asdescribed, the parameters of the Johnson distributions closely fit the 5th percentile, median, and 95thpercentile of the NUREG-1829 distribution values (Section 2.1, Table 3 of LAR Encl. 4-3 Reference 8) withexplicitly listed parameter values in LAR Encl. 4-3 Reference 8 Table 2.

Thevalues from tables 5-1 through 5-4 were used as weighting factors to distribute NUREG-1829 total breakfrequencies across weld types and to containment locations by matching weld types with containmentweld data. In LAR Encl. 4-3, conservation of NUREG-1829 total break frequency is referred to as the"top-down" portion of the "hybrid" break frequency approach. Tables 5-1 through 5-4 from reference 7represent the product of "bottom-up" aggregation of cross-industry data on observed flaws ordegradation that may lead to breaks. | |||
